Resumo: |
This research inquires how the slaves resisted and, in different ways, struggled against the institution of slavery in nineteenth century‟s Alagoas. As point of departure, this work seeks to represent the experiences of the enslaved as historical subjects, emphasizing their dissonant voices, but also, considering the networks of solidarity and sociability that they established with freedmen and the free poor. Therefore, the priority is to study the resistance to slavery carried out by this population that reinvented itself and developed, within existing possibilities, various strategies to obtain their means of subsistence and to gain greater autonomy, always having freedom in their horizons. The thesis treated the Alagoas slave revolt of 1815, the Cabanos War (1832-35) and the mutinies against the "Law of the Captivity" (1851-52). The decade of the abolition of slavery in Brazil (1880) was also analyzed, through the statements of farmers and other members of local elites who complained about the "lack of slave arms", the gangs of horse thieves and the "quilombizacão" of the city of Maceió due to the constant escapes of slaves from the farms. Prior to treating these questions, it is reflected on how the memory of Palmares was constituted in 19th-century Alagoan society. The African ethnic groups present in Alagoas and the importance of orality and the body in their cultures are also discussed as factors in the process of the recovery their memory in the diaspora. Through this, we seek to contribute to a better understanding of the history of slavery and freedom in the nineteenth century and the tensions and pressures that triggered abolition, focusing on a region that, despite the many studies on the “Quilombo dos Palmares”, lacks historiographic research on the protagonism of the enslaved, freed and poor free in the process of destabilization of the institution of slavery |
